Booker T. & The MG's; Time Is Tight. The rest of their tracks are agreeable enough, but this one is transcendent.


A bit more controversial; Jimi Hendrix, Axis (Bold As Love). Amazing, mindblowing song. No other Hendrix track even comes close for me.

Even more controversial (?); Nirvana, Something In The Way. Love this song! Most every other Nirvana song is pretty dull.


...but a relatively "minor" artist? Has to be Vienna, by Ultravox. Midge Ure's a complete hack and Ultravox is basically a less commerically successful version of Duran Duran (shudder), but Vienna is one of those perfect pop songs.
